> and <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>serial4</TT

     equivalent: both create <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>integer</TT
> columns.  The type
     names <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>bigserial</TT
> and <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>serial8</TT
> work
     the same way, except that they create a <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>bigint</TT
>
     column.  <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>bigserial</TT
> should be used if you anticipate
     the use of more than 2<SUP
>31</SUP
> identifiers over the
     lifetime of the table.
    </P

>     The sequence created for a <TT
CLASS="TYPE"
>serial</TT
> column is
     automatically dropped when the owning column is dropped.
     You can drop the sequence without dropping the column, but this
     will force removal of the column default expression.
